High School Circumstances

Chapter 3

Rule 3; no matter what gym class is just confusing

Heaven

A peaceful place

Nothing of the unhappy world enters its gates

Heaven…like the light that shines over the darkness

Hell…the darkness that dwells beneath the light

Neither can exist alone in peace

Wale the other runs free with no companion

Sinners try to enter its gates

She protects herself from others harm

Until one sinner comes

And attacks with swift movements of speed

She enters his barrier

Movements full of care

And melts the sinner's heart

Time began to move forward, but slowly still. Sakura opened her eyes and became aware of her surroundings. One, she was in the lunchroom. Two, there were at least a hundred people staring at her. And three……….she was kissing Sasuke!

For some strange reason a part of her didn't want the kiss to end. But her instincts took over and Sakura quickly came to her senses. Sakura had to use most of her will-power to puss Sasuke away from her. She took both her hands a quickly pushed him off of her lips. She kept her face to the ground. She could feel her face start to heat up and kept it there until she was sure that the blush had subsided. When she did look up Sakura was greeted by the same arrogant smirk as always.

How the hell can this bastard still be smirking? Doesn't his stupid face have any other expressions to it!

"What the hell were you doing?" Sakura asked.

She kept her voice just loud enough so that Sasuke could only barely hear her. Sasuke leaned in again but instead of going for her lips again he placed his lips right next to Sakura's ear.

"Testing you," he whispered. "I wanted to see how you would react."

Sasuke drew away from Sakura and said something under his breath. Sakura was just about to ask him what he had said, but the bell signaling the end of lunch rang. Sasuke stood up and took Sakura by the arm, just as he had done before, and headed through the crowed with lightning speed.

This is new. What happened to Mr. Lazy-ass?

Sasuke made it to their next class in record time and continued this way for the rest of the day. Finally it was ninth period which meant only one thing left; gym. Normally Sakura hated gym but for once she could lose her bodyguard while she changed in the locker room.

"I don't think you're allowed in here," Sakura joked glancing up at Sasuke.

Sasuke scowled and eyed the door, almost daring himself to actually go inside with her. In the end Sasuke let go of her arm and gave up the fight. He eyed Sakura for a moment before finally saying something.

"Fine," he mumbled. "But if you don't come out of that room when class starts I'll come in there myself."

For another moment Sasuke looked all serious again, but his smirk reappeared, taking its place. Sakura nodded and headed into her safe haven. The coach gave her a lock, a locker, and a gym uniform; a white shirt with blue trimming, a pair of black shorts, and a pair of running shoes. Sakura quickly changed into the outfit and headed into the gym. Along the way she caught a couple of the girls who were in her homeroom glaring at her.

Weird. Why would they be pissed at me already…I haven't done anything.

Sakura passed them and joined the rest of the class. Some of the girls that were also in her homeroom seemed to notice her and walked over.

"Hey," one of the girls said. "You're Sakura right, the new girl from our homeroom?"

The girl had two Chinese-style buns in her brown hair, brown eyes, and was an inch or so taller than Sakura. Sakura nodded.

"Good I thought so," the girl said. "Seeing as you're the only girl in the whole school with pink hair."

She smiled and her face showed a bit of cockiness to it.

"I'm Ten-Ten," she said. "And this is Hinata, and Temari."

The first girl Ten-Ten pointed to was almost Sakura's height. She had short, black hair that stuck up a little in the back and her face had pale blue eyes. The second girl was at the same height as Ten-Ten. Her blonde hair was divided into four separate positions and sharp eyes that made her face seem sharp. Sakura nodded towards the other two girls and faced Ten-Ten again.

"We were wondering if you wanted to join our gym group," Ten-Ten explained. "We usually team up with four other guys, but were always one girl short."

Sakura nodded again to show that she understood.

"So, wanna join our group?" Ten-Ten finished.

"Sure," Sakura replied.

Ten-Ten turned towards Temari and Hinata and gave them the thumbs up. Sakura joined the group of girls just as the class started.

Well at least I don't have to be around Sasuke for this period. Maybe things are looking up.

The teacher came out of his office and Sakura's mouth dropped open. He a bowl haircut and a thin figure. On top of his eyes were what really creped Sakura out the most; big, fat caterpillar eyebrows. The teacher looked smug and energetic.

"Now students, as your beloved Gai-sensei," Gai-sensei exclaimed. "I demand that today you take all the spirited youth you posses, and make these balls sore!"

At the last part Gai-sensei struck a pose with a couple of soccer balls and put on a huge smile.

I'm beginning to think that every teacher here is crazy.

The class split up into groups. Ten-Ten began waving toward a group of boys who soon joined them.

"Ok everyone," Ten-Ten started. "I've finally found us a fourth person."

Ten-Ten turned towards Sakura and pointed out the four boys. The first one was a boy taller than Ten-Ten. He had long black hair that was tied near the end. His face was pale and his eyes were an even paler shade of violet. His name was Neji; a cousin of Hinata. Next was a boy who had black hair that was tied into a pony-tale which stuck up on his head. His eyes looked black and he looked even lazier than Sasuke; his name was Shikamaru. The third was the same boy that had yelled at Kakashi-sensei. His hair was blonde and spiked like a porcupine. He had a goofy grin on his face and his eyes were blue; his name was Naruto.

The fourth boy was late and came striding out of the locker room and joined the group. It was Sasuke. He looked at Sakura with his usual smirk and nodded towards Ten-Ten.

"So she joined our group, huh," he stated.

"Obviously," Ten-Ten said. "Now let's play soccer!"

The game got pretty intense and it was hard to see who would win. Finally the game was down to a shoot out between Sakura and Sasuke. Sakura moved towards the goal and sunk her shoot, which happened to hit Sasuke right in the head. He fell to the ground unconscious.

Oh damn.

Sakura rushed towards him and kneeled to the ground.

Oh hell! What if I gave him a concussion? Oh damn it!

Sakura leaned towards Sasuke and lightly smacked his face. She leaned forward and stared at his face, not noticing how close she was to his lips. Slowly Sakura leaned forward, now staring at his lips instead of his face.

She moved in closer and closer, until she heard a strange sound that caused her to tear away from Sasuke's lips. Sasuke's eyes were practically open, squinting tightly, and his lips once again took the form of a smirk. He took her hand in his and motioned for her to lean down, which she did so.

"Gotcha," he whispered. "And I'm fine. Your kick was too weak to give me a bruise, let alone a concussion."

Sakura could feel the burning start to come in her face but ignored it.

"What the hell is your problem?" Sakura spat. "What do you have against me?"

Sasuke looked up at her curiously.

"Nothing at all," Sasuke replied. "Why have I done something wrong?"

How about making me think I kicked the living shit out of you?

But before Sakura could reply to his latest comment the bell rang. Sasuke stayed where he was positioned on the floor and continued to look at Sakura.

"Hey Sakura," Ten-Ten called. "Are you gonna stare at him all day?"

With that Sakura took one last look at Sasuke and headed into the locker room.

"Hey what's up with Uchiha?" Ten-Ten asked.

"Honestly," Sakura muttered. "I haven't the slightest clue."

How the hell did he know that I thought I gave him a concussion? I'm sure I didn't say it aloud.
